Update: Q's Nuts in Somerville Is Closing; Hearth and Hug Bakery to Replace It

[Ed note: This article was updated on May 13 to reflect the fact that a bakery is taking over the space.]

A Somerville shop known for its gourmet roasted nuts is getting ready to shut down.

According to a post within the Davis Square Facebook group page, Q's Nuts on the eastern edge of Davis Square is closing its doors, with a photo out front at the Highland Avenue store indicating that it will be saying farewell on Saturday, June 14. One of the notes out front mentions that the Boston Public Market location will remain in operation, as will the company's online business (and its products are also available via its local wholesale partners).

After the news cane out, a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page mentioned that Hearth and Hug, a bakery with a location at Boston Public Market, will be taking over the Q's Nuts space.

The Q's Nuts company first started out in 2000, with its Somerville shop debuting in 2012.

The address for Q's Nuts in Somerville is 349 Highland Avenue, Somerville, MA, 02144. Its website can be found at https://qsnuts.com/
